Journal Article
Entwistle, N., Heritage, G., Schofield, L., & Williamson, R. (2018). Recent changes to floodplain character and functionality in England. CATENA, 174(Mar 19), 490-498. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.catena.2018.11.018

Regime analysis suggests that temperate alluvial watercourses overtop their banks on average once every 1.5 years transferring water and sediment across the valley floor to form floodplains helping maintain a strong hydrological connection between in...

Quantifying and contextualising cyclone-driven, extreme flood magnitudes in bedrock-influenced dryland rivers (2018)
Journal Article
Heritage, G., Entwistle, N., Milan, D., & Tooth, S. (2018). Quantifying and contextualising cyclone-driven, extreme flood magnitudes in bedrock-influenced dryland rivers. Advances in water resources, 123(Jan 19), 145-159. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.advwatres.2018.11.006

In many drylands worldwide, rivers are subjected to episodic, extreme flood events and associated sediment stripping. These events may trigger transformations from mixed bedrock-alluvial channels characterised by high geomorphic and ecological divers...
